If you can get past the klm's it is a lot of car for the money.

LOL with Alloy heads it would probably weigh the same as a 342 Wheezer but give me an extra 120hp..!!!

HP who cares, it's torque that wins the races.

Lol I practically got threats a few weeks ago when I said the current true values of t3s was more in the mid teens than the high 20s.
Seems to some it doesn't matter how many sell for between 10-20, and how many sit anchored for sale at 25-35 the true value is still 25-30k.
The only ones I've seen actually sell recently have been 20k and less. Might be higher Kay's and or lower specs, might not be.

2nd hand market is dead, it's gotta affect everything at some point, and t series aren't exempt.

All comes down what someone is willing to pay as we all know.
A low k 50thou odd k's manual T3 sold recently - obviously in very good shape - $32k, obviously didn't need to go on ebay,carsales.
Another went prior similar money.
It varies obviously - those lowballers need some tlc and $$$ thrown at them but as said alot of car for the money.

My insurance renewal came in the other week - agreed value near on $35k - I like !

Slightly off topic, I attended our monthly GT Club meeting yesterday, & heard some interesting stories about insurance.
Seems Shannon's has boosted value's on the classic (steel bumper) GT's & dropped values on the modern GT's & T Series cars.
Another GT owner (classic) reported his insurance company stopped taking his monthly payments out, after 3 months he began to get worried.
He contacted the insurance company only to be told "we do not want your business anymore"
Another classic owner had taken a "layed up" policy out for 12 months, payed up 12 months in advance.
Somehow sometime the insurer contacted him & asked why his car was "layed up"? ie not being driven.
He replied he had lost his licence for 12 months, & wanted insurance for his car in case anything happened to it while it was in storage.
The insurer cancelled his policy & refunded his premium.

Geez, that's a bit rough. Its competitive out there, every insurance company is different.
